Posted February 28, 2020 No free anti malware/anti virus is good, that's why they are free. Free ones aren't regularly updated and tend to just use you as a guinea pig. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The free version of AVG isn't bad for just the basic functionality. Of course paying for one is always the better option but those are 2 that have a free version that will be better than nothing if you can't afford one at the moment.

Posted February 28, 2020 The imbedded Windows Security is probably "the best" free one you will get. Other wise a paid one is what you are looking for.
